Proceeding with the tour, we will make our way to the magnificent Uganda National Mosque, located atop Kampala Hill. Remarkably, this impressive structure stands as a skyscraper mosque, a notable gift from Colonel Muammar Gaddafi of Libya.
After taking in the beauty of this grand mosque, our journey continues to the lively Owino Market.
